Dr. Anu Anand
| PCMA Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation
PCMA Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation is a group that is dedicated to improving the quality of life for our patients. “I graduated medical school in 2009 and have been a specialist in PM&R since 2013,” said Dr. Anu Anand. We want to improve pain, function and return them to enjoy their favorite hobbies and time with family. “I found rehab medicine to be a very fulfilling field, since I get to see the difference I make in a person’s life in a short period of time. I have always loved medicine and truly enjoy seeing my patients every day, especially If I see them happy and pain free after I treat them,” said Dr. Anand. We have a multidisciplinary approach to pain which includes starting with a comprehensive evaluation and management with conservative methods. If needed we have interventional procedure rooms for epidural and nerve blocks in both office locations, and we also offer innovative ways to help with pain such as PRP and Stem Cell therapy. We strive to help patients and are accommodating. We can usually get someone in within that week for evaluation and if needed a procedure. 724-741-0633 | info@pcmanetwork.com

Crystal Manning
| Licensed Medicare Advisor
I am a Licensed Medicare Advisor, and I assist with options for Medicare Health plans, which are used to supplement original Medicare coverage. Medicare can be confusing, with so many available options. I was working long hours with my former employer with little appreciation or monetary reward. It became an easy decision to leave and start my own business after I expressed a desire to expand the business for my employer and was told it was not in their business plan. I have been in the health insurance business for more than 30 years and with that knowledge, I can offer my clients individual advice on what is the best option for them, not the carrier or what works best for the company where I am employed. After more than four years on my own, I now wonder why I did not do it sooner. I am excited to have a job I love, be able help people and be my own boss. I work with financial planners and CPAs to help their clients make positive choices for their future health care requirements. I am proud of the legacy I have created and look forward to passing my knowledge along to my daughter and others to continue the business that I have created. I truly would like to make my clients “Crystal” clear on their Medicare choice. Contact Crystal Manning at 412-716-4942 or crystalmanning33@gmail.com.
